Sure LOOKS like an Alembic (see link below) I don't see a power supply anywhere..... Not a bad "buy it now" price though. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2369501393&category=4713#ebayphotohosting bracheen Member Username: bracheen Post Number: 77 Registered: 11-2003 Posted on Tuesday, December 30, 2003 - 5:22 pm:    I emailed the seller. He agreed that is is a series 1 and the power supply would be included. He didn't shed any light on the LBI-4 question.

I think this may be from a group of basses we made for Guitar Center. About 10 similar basses were made at the same time for their more premier locations. Backplates look a little funny - like chrome plating is left only on the edge, but it may just be the photo. Those things are like mirrors and extrememly hard to photograph.
